No worries, you'll be fine; that does not cause flares.

any exercise can sometime accelerate symptoms. but there is no link to exercise and an immune response that results in inflammation. other types of inflammation may occur in abdominal muscles - but not in the colon. UC is not from shaking, squeezing, or rubbing.
